dual card trouble... 8800gt & 5200fx
Ok... sorry that my first post is a cry for help.
On XP I was running two cards. The 8800gt for my main LCD and TV and a 5200fx for my two side monitors. Worked fine on XP... had to use different drivers for each card though (extracted the 5200fx drivers, then installed them via the device manager to the 5200).
On 7, if the 5200 is plugged in, 7 will not "see" the monitor on the 8800gt. I thought perhaps the 5200 wasn't compatible with 7, but if I install the 7 drivers for the fx series cards then Aero and everything works.
My question is, why will 7 not let me use monitors on both cards simultaneously?
Anyone else had this issue?
Thanks!
